                         Friday, June 24, 2022

  Mr. GRAVES of Missouri. Madam Speaker, I proudly pause to recognize 
Phyllis Myers. Phyllis won the award for Woman in Volunteerism from the 
YWCA St. Joseph Women of Excellence Awards program for her service in 
her community.
  In 1970, Phyllis co-founded the New Generation Singers with her 
husband, the pastor of Wyatt Park Christian Church. Over the last 52 
years, she has served as a leader, mentor, and chaperone, attended 
countless rehearsals and performances, and accompanied the group on 2-
week tours across the United States and Canada. She's developed fond 
connections with thousands of young people, over the years, and has 
served as a substitute mother and grandmother to many.
  Madam Speaker, I proudly ask you to join me in thanking and 
congratulating Phyllis Myers for winning the Woman in Volunteerism 
award as well as service to the people of the Sixth Congressional 
District. I am proud to represent Phyllis Myers in the United States 
House of Representatives.
